Pokémon's 30th Anniversary Bombshell: Winds and Waves Coming to Switch 2 in 2027

The Pokémon world just got a massive jolt of excitement. On the eve of its 30th anniversary since the original games launched in 1996, The Pokémon Company hosted a Pokémon Presents showcase that left fans speechless. We got our first look at what a fully Switch 2 Pokemon can look like in the teaser for two new titles, Pokemon Winds and Pokemon Waves. If you haven't seen it yet, make sure to check out the trailer below to get a look at what Pokemon has in store.

Just look at those water effects! Pokemon has never looked so good.

While it's great to see these new iterations of Pokemon, we still have to be patient. Winds and Waves won't release until sometime in 2027, and they will be exclusive to Switch 2. If you can't wait that long for your next Pokemon fix, Nintendo has something else for you to check out. Pokemon Champions is coming to Nintendo Switch, Switch 2 in April, with a mobile release later this year.

Pokemon Champions is a great looking Pokemon battler that seems to really tie into the classic Pokemon fantasy. It will be interesting to see how many people are fighting it out once this hits next month.

As always, if you're a Pokemon fan Nintendo has your back. Which new Pokemon game are you most excited about?
